Abstract
Recent investigations have given a clearer insight into the genetic pr ogression of bladder cancer. In this review we identify the clinical c ourses of bladder cancer, review the basic concepts of carcinogenesis, and focus on the specific cytogenetic and molecular alterations obser ved in bladder cancer. Progression models to superficial and invasive disease are discussed.
